Here's how to make sure you never get bold lipstick on your teeth ever again

Be it a bright red, coral, vampy merlot or hotter-than-hot pink, nothing can pick up your mood like a punchy colour on the pout.

But playing in the bold pit, isn't without it's risk. If you want to make sure no colour ever slips from your lips to your sparkling white teeth, try this trick the next time you apply.

After smacking your lips together, place your pointer finger (sounds dirty but it's not), inside your mouth and then close your lips around it before slowly pulling it outwards. Any lipstick that was in danger of going near your smile will now be on your finger.
